The Truth About the High Water at
Evansville
Iho truth about tho flood
situation at Evansville is that
all of tho best pari b of Evansville
that is to say, thwbusiness, manu
facturing and almost all of the
residence sections on the city,
aro entirely freo from damage.
llie Udkdnle section is a cheap
surburb built of low ground close
to tho river bottoms whore lots
can bo purchased at a nominal
price aud is inhabited ton great
extent by those who were at
tracted by the cheapness of
property.
Evansville is a high and dry
city and the damugo to the busi
ness by high water is entirely
nominal and is caused solely by
loss ot business from surrouud
ing territory, some of which is
low ground but which is more
than made up by the increased
fertility of the river bottom land
which rents for us high, as $20.00
per acre per annum.
Evansville has uever been and
never will be flooded as some of
the other cities along the river
for tho reason that our Water
Street even at the present high
stage of water is not sabmerged
and the stores and shops are
thronged with customers as usual.
Any resident of Evansville will
confirm this statement and we
hope that all forrrler residents
who are located in other cities of
the country will do their duty to
their home town by telling their
neighbors tho truth about the
ligh water conditions at Evans
ville.
